For the second consecutive week, Waite has reeled in the GSC Field Athlete of the Week award after setting a new school record at the UAB Green and Gold Invite. The freshman competed in the shot put where she recorded a throw of 13.78 meters, placing her sixth out of 39 throwers. Not only did this give her a school record, but it also gave her the 23rd longest throw in all of Division II this season.
